Activity Description
This department covers the general maintenance of City Hall. The major expenses in this budget are utilities,janitorial
expenses, building maintenance,and HVAC. Beginning in 2012,this is also the home department for the facility
maintenance supervisor and part-time janitorial staff used for all City buildings. These staff costs are then allocated to each
of the various department budgets for the buildings maintained.
Objectives
The on-going objective of this department is to maintain City Hall in a condition that is safe and respectable. Due to the age of
the building,it is susceptible to significant unplanned emergency maintenance over time. Additionally,a significant portion of
the department's budget is for weather-dependent utility costs. These greater risk factors, relative to many other
departments, are considered when estimating the next year's budget.
Beginning in 2012,this department has the additional objective of coordinating maintenance of the City's eight principal
buildings and providing cost-effective janitorial services for five of those buildings.
Budget Comments
The 2014 budget for this department is approximately$19,000 or 10%less than for 2013. This reflects reductions in every
major cost category.
The only reduction which is individually significant is$14,000 from the capital outlay category. This primarily reflects the
purchase of certain copy machines carried over to the 2013 budget from 2012,which are not included in the 2014 budget.

Activity Description
This department was established to budget and account for various activities that do not specifically fall under other
departments. Examples of these activities are employee and volunteer recognition,fireworks,the City Beautification
program,and the City newsletter.
The Beautification project is supported by a core group of volunteers who care about this City and work to make it better.
They embody"Heights Pride". With staff and city support,this group beautifies the city parks, public buildings,and Central
Avenue business district through plantings of flowers and shrubs.
Objectives
The newsletter provides essential information to residents.
The plants and flowers in our parks and public areas clearly beautify the city and show a heightened sense of community pride.
The citizen volunteers form a genuine bond as a group and are proud of their contributions to their city. These attractive
plantings improve the impression our city creates to visitors, long-time residents,and new-comers alike.
The fireworks display at the Jamboree is generally considered the capstone activity to the largest community event of the year.
Budget Comments
The 2014 budget for this department is$5,000 less than 2013. This reflects that 2013 included$5,000 of one-time funding to
acquire and equip a parade float for the royalty program. All other items in the 2014 budget are the same as for 2014.
Additional Note: The Recreation portion of the newsletter is edited/prepared by the Recreation Department. The general
City portion is contracted out at the cost of$5,000 as shown on the Summary of Cost Factors page within this book.

Activity Description
This department was established to budget and account for activities not budgeted under other departments.
Objectives
The objective of the Contingency department is to allow for sufficient flexibility in the overall budget to adapt to items which
cannot be projected/forecasted with sufficient certainty to be detailed in the budget.
Budget Comments
The significant difference in the 2013 and 2014 reflects that 2013 included a$131,194 contingency for labor agreement
changes for all departments within the General Fund. For 2014, all such amounts for labor agreement changes, both settled
and unsettled, are included in the individual department budgets.

Activity Description
This department was established to account for budgeted transfers-out from the General Fund to other City funds
Objectives
The main objective of this department is to gradually fund capital projects and equipment replacement over time.This
allows for a more consistent tax levy and more orderly budgeting process. Thereby,when the need to replace a large
capital item occurs, it does not create large swings in the amount available for operating purposes.
Budget Comments
The department proposed budget for 2013 is a$5,000 increase over 2012,to reflect increased use of information systems
services by the departments within the General Fund.
In addition,the City Manager proposes one-time transfers of$300,000 to the Library Capital Building Fund 450; and
$200,000 to the Capital Improvement-Parks Fund 412. This utilizes a 2014$500,000 increase in Local Government Aid
(LGA) revenue in a manner consistent with the City's five-year financial plan, in that it uses available LGA in capital
activities that are ultimately otherwise paid for with property taxes. This provides property tax relief over the long-term
without the destabilizing effect of increasing dependence on state aid within the annual operating budget dependent.
The potential replacement of the current Library building is under consideration by the City Council.
Refer the Capital Improvement-Parks Fund 412 section of the budget for detail on upcoming park improvement projects.

Activity Description

3. Expand amount of information and programming on the government access channel.
Budget Comments
The Cable Television budget increased by$1,619 from 2013 to 2014. Personal Services decreased by$6,due to a decrease in
Workers'Compensation insurance premium. Supplies decreased by$100,due to no monies budgeted for general supplies.
Other Services and Charges increased by$970, due to a$2,166 increase to Repair and Maintenance to account for an increase
in the Civic Plus website support, maintenance and hosting fee ($166) and monies being budgeted for cable equipment repair
($2,000), and a$650 increase to Taxes and Licenses for monies budgeted to pay for music copyright licenses, offset by a$200
decrease to Expert and Professional Services for the auditor's fee, a$1,539 decrease to Other Communications for Comcast
Data Charges allocated to this budget,and a$107 decrease to Insurance and Bonds for property and liability insurance. Other
Financing Uses increased by$755, due to an increase in Transfers Out-Labor to account for wage and insurance adjustments
for 2013 and 2014.

Activity Description
Fund 411 was established to account for building improvements and major maintenance not included in operating
budgets. The City Council has committed funds here as they have become available over time, creating a fund balance
available for building improvements.At present,the only on-going funding for departments within Fund 411 is an annual
transfer of approximately$22,000 to this fund from the General Fund budget.
Objectives
The objective of each of the departments within Fund 411 is to fund building improvements,when they are necessary,
without burdening operating budgets to do so. At this time,the City's planning in this area is only informal. Future
objectives include formalizing this long-term planning process for building improvements.
Budget Comments
The only item budgeted in this department for 2014 is the sealcoating and striping of city parking lots. Current engineering
data show that sealcoating these lots at this time will reduce the future need for more costly maintenance,such as mill and
overlay or partial reconstruction.

insurance.

increasing by$33,095 and interdepartmental labor increasing by$4,552 for the 2014 election, offset by a decrease of$14,113 for

salary as previous City Clerk was at the top of the pay scale.
Supplies decreased by$700. Minor equipment and Computer equipment each decreased by$500 since the new computer
purchased for the clerk in 2013 included upgraded software that would have been needed in 2014 and the election computer can be
replaced by a newer used computer from the IS Department to support the software upgrade as opposed to purchasing a new
computer for the software upgrade offset by a$300 increase in Printing and Printed Forms due to elections in 2014.
Other Services&Charges decreased overall by$751.Training increased by$20 to include the increase in fee for MCFOA Clerk
training, postage increased by $150 and legal publishing increased by$1,000, both for 2014 election. Taxes&Licenses increased by
$100 for renewal of required notary.These are offset by a$261 decrease in insurance and bonds,a$150 decrease in local travel,
since there is not as much mileage reimbursement needed, a$1,370 decrease in Repair&Maintenance Services, Laser Fiche Agenda
Manager was being budgeted under City Clerk and should be under Mayor/Council along with a$40 decrease in Commissions and
Boards,a decrease of$100 in Rents& Leases and a decrease of a$100 in Misc.Charges, all of which is budgeted already under
Mayor/Council .

Activity Description
The purpose of the Finance Department is to account for all financial operations of the City and to report on those operations.
The Finance department is responsible for budgeting,financial reporting,accounts payable and receivable, payroll, utility billing,
purchasing, liquor operations,and information systems within City operations.
Objectives
The department's ongoing objective is to continually improve its work processes. In 2014,the department will emphasize
organizing current staff roles and work processes, so as to best support a major transition in 2015 to new financial software.
Budget Comments
The proposed budget for 2014 is a 2%increase from the 2013 budget.The following two adjustments to the 2013 adopted
budget are required to calculate this 2%increase:
2013 Adopted Budget for 101.41510 Finance $764,700
(Less) Council-approved carryover from 2012 to 2013 for capital equipment (7,500)
Plus certain 2013 labor costs for Finance dept.budgeted in 101.49200 Contingency dept. 11,532
2013 budget base,as adjusted $768,732
The overall 2014 increase reflects increases to Council-approved labor contracts, offset by reductions in all non-personnel
expense categories. However,the only significant reduction was in the category of capital outlay.
No out-of-town travel is budgeted for 2014, as the national conference for the Government Finance Officers Association will be
held in Minneapolis in 2014.

Activity Description
The Administration Department of the Water Utility Fund accounts for 33.3%of the costs associated with the utility billing
process costs associated with meter reading.The remaining costs for utility billing are allocated to the Sewer Utility Fund-
33.3%and the Refuse Utility Fund 33.3%;the remaining costs for meter reading are allocated to the Sewer Utility Fund.
Objectives
The department's ongoing objective is to continually improve its work processes. In 2014,the department will emphasize
organizing current staff roles and work processes,so as to best support a major transition in 2015 to new financial software.
Budget Comments
The proposed budget for 2014 is an increase of$3,050 or 2%from the 2013 budget.The majority of this reflects an increase
in the annual transfer out from this department to the general fund for administrative labor. This transfer is 54%of the
department's entire budget. Credit card fees continue to rise as customers increasingly chose that method of payment.
There were no individually significant changes in the other major expense categories.

Activity Description
The Administration Department of the Sewer Utility Fund accounts for costs directly associated with this fund. At this time,
there are no allocated costs for the utility billing process or meter reading in this fund.
Objectives
The Storm Sewer Administration Department is only a passive collecting point in the accounting system for certain direct
costs.As such, it does not have objectives other than to fulfill this record keeping role. It is not a department that is staffed
directly or indirectly(such as through a labor allocation.)
Budget Comments
The proposed budget for 2014 is a$200 decrease from the 2013 budget. The only item in this budget is a share of the
annual audit costs.

Activity Description
The IS department provides information system implementation, management, support,and training to the City employees. With
the City's dependence on IS,it is imperative to have staff on hand to support and develop the system. Modern information
technologies and training increase City employees' productivity and reduce overall cost of information system ownership.
Major IS components:

2. Network devices, including wireless networks and Internet access.
3. Phone and voice mail systems.
4. Desktop PCs, portable computers and other mobile devices.
5. Printers, networked copiers/scanners and other output devices.
6. Databases.
7. Laserfiche document imaging system.
8.Office applications(word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, e-mail and scheduling).
9.Special departmental applications.
10.Official City Website.
Objectives
1. Ensure efficient, secure,and reliable operation of the City information system.
2. Complete upgrading or replacing computers running Windows XP operating system since it will no longer be supported by
Microsoft.
3.Support City Library staff and patrons.
4. Provide Internet access to the public documents in Laserfiche system.
5. Provide reliable and secure Internet access for City employees.
6.Train users and IS staff to better use City information system.
Budget Comments
Budgeted expenses for 2014 are$5,861(1.8%) more than budgeted expenses for 2013. Major changes:
"Personnel Expenses" are$13,261 more due to scheduled annual pay increase and IS staff progression through pay levels.
-"Expert&Professional Services" are$1,740 less due to reclassification of some expenses as"Repair&Maintenance Services".
Even with this reclassification, "Repair& Maintenance Services" are$5,243 less. Whenever feasible,the IS Dept. purchases multi-
year maintenance contracts to decrease annual costs. Overall, "Services and Charges" are$7,400 less.

Activity Description
Capital Equipment Replacement fund is used for IS hardware and software purchases with a cost of a unit in the amount
set by City procedures for fixed assets or more and a life expectancy of one year or longer.
Objectives
Replace primary network storage system(purchased in 2008)that is no longer supported by the vendor.
Replace other IS components that are no longer supported by vendors and are not compatible with newer components.
Keep using existing IS components as long as they can be efficiently supported.
Budget Comments
Expenses in this fund change significantly from one year to another,depending on the IS equipment life cycle. Budgeted
expenses for 2014 are$19,750 more than in 2013.The major budgeted expense is$42,750 for the replacement of primary
network storage system that provides storage of user documents,emails, databases,and system disks of the virtual
servers. The current primary storage system (purchased in 2008)will be no longer supported by the vendor in 2014 and
cannot be used for mission-critical functions. It will be re-purposed to store non-critical data,which will allow postponing
upgrades of other storage systems.

Budget Comments
1)Overall budget combining Fund 201 and 204 has a 0%increase.

City Planner position.Fund 204 shows offsetting personal cost.
3)Expert and professional services (in both fund 201 and 204)reflect potential consultant,intern or potential other
services due to lack of City Planner position. Based on prior expenditures,only a total of 37%of the City Planner's total
cost has been reallocated to this line item as illustrated in both funds.
4)Revenue was increased by$23,000 to reflect potential major projects(Huset Redevelopment and/or Library).Fund will
have a projected shortfall of$51,000 which will be absorbed through the Fund's fund balance.

Activity Description
Municipal liquor stores started after Prohibition as a means for cities to control the distribution of alcohol in their communities.
Later,cities found their municipal liquor stores could also be a method of generating needed non-tax revenue.Today,the
primary purpose of municipal liquor stores is to control the distribution of alcohol-while simultaneously generating income for
the community.
Since 1984,the Top Valu I store has had the further goal of providing the community with an outstanding selection of products
at very competitive prices through a high-volume low-price strategy. Additionally,when the current Top Valu I facility was
constructed in 2007-2008 at 4950 Central Avenue NE,the City Council chose to construct the building to very strict design
guidelines,so that this store will be a leading example for other businesses in the community for many years.
Our City's three-store municipal liquor operation is the 5th largest in Minnesota,and growing.It has provided funds for City
infrastructure,equipment,and mitigation of the negative effects of alcohol in the community through activities such as D.A.R.E.
Objectives
As in recent years,the main objective for Top Valu I for 2014 will be to maintain stable growth by continuing to establish the
Top Valu brand as a point-of-destination shopping experience for wine,beer and spirits. This will be achieved primarily by
continuing to offer one of the best product selections in the state,at attractive stores with a comfortable environment. Various
promotions,tastings,and other special events developed in recent years have proven to be very popular with customers and
will be continued in 2014. In addition,the Top Valu stores are developing new strategies to engage and educate more
customers on a day-to-day basis apart from the special events.
Budget Comments
Cost of goods sold expense for Top Valu I is budgeted each year to reflect the most recent sales projections available. The
primary change in budgeted expenses to operate the store for 2014,compared to 2013,is a$24,700 increase in personnel
costs.
The majority of this increase reflects both Council-approved labor contract increases,and that a portion of the 2013 labor costs
for this store were budgeted under the contingency line item in the separate department 609-49794.
Other highlights for 2014 include:
• Service to supply rugs,mops,and towels; previously budgeted under line item 4100 Rent,is included under line item 4020
Building Maintenance beginning in 2014.
• The allowance for vandalism costs,previously budgeted under line item 8100 Vandalism,is included under line item 4020
Building Maintenance beginning in 2014.
• As in 2013,unusually high expenditures for computer hardware and software are budgeted for 2014,to prepare for the
abandonment of the Window XP operating system by Microsoft in mid-2014.

Activity Description
Municipal liquor stores started after Prohibition as a means for cities to control the distribution of alcohol in their communities.
Later,cities found their municipal liquor stores could also be a method of generating needed non-tax revenue.Today,the
primary purpose of municipal liquor stores is to control the distribution of alcohol-while simultaneously generating income for
the community.
Since 1983,the Top Valu II store has had the further goal of providing the community with an outstanding selection of products
at very competitive prices through a high-volume low-price strategy. Additionally,when the current Top Valu II facility was
constructed in 2007-2008 at 2105 37th Avenue NE,the City Council chose to construct the building to very strict design
guidelines,so that this store will be a leading example for other businesses in the community for many years.
Our City's three-store municipal liquor operation is the 5th largest in Minnesota,and growing.It has provided funds for City
infrastructure,equipment,and mitigation of the negative effects of alcohol in the community through activities such as D.A.R.E.
Objectives
As in recent years,the main objective for Top Valu I for 2014 will be to maintain stable growth by continuing to establish the
Top Valu brand as a point-of-destination shopping experience for wine,beer and spirits. This will be achieved primarily by
continuing to offer one of the best product selections in the state,at attractive stores with a comfortable environment.
Various promotions,tastings,and other special events developed in recent years have proven to be very popular with
customers and will be continued in 2014. In addition,the Top Valu stores are developing new strategies to engage and
educate more customers on a day-to-day basis apart from the special events.
Budget Comments
Cost of goods sold expense for Top Valu II is budgeted each year to reflect the most recent sales projections available. The
primary change in budgeted expenses to operate the store for 2014,compared to 2013,is a$20,200 increase in personnel
costs.
The majority of this increase reflects both Council-approved labor contract increases,and that a portion of the 2013 labor costs
for this store were budgeted under the contingency line item in the separate department 609-49794.
Other highlights for 2014 include:
• Service to supply rugs,mops,and towels;previously budgeted under line item 4100 Rent,is included under line item 4020
Building Maintenance beginning in 2014.
• The allowance for vandalism costs, previously budgeted under line item 8100 Vandalism,is included under line item 4020
Building Maintenance beginning in 2014.
• As in 2013,unusually high expenditures for computer hardware and software are budgeted for 2014,to prepare for the
abandonment of the Window XP operating system by Microsoft in mid-2014.

Activity Description
Municipal liquor stores started after Prohibition as a means for cities to control the distribution of alcohol in their
communities.Later,cities found their municipal liquor stores could also be a method of generating needed non-tax
revenue.Today,the primary purpose of municipal liquor stores is to control the distribution of alcohol-while
simultaneously generating income for the community.
The store operated under the name Heights Liquor is located at 5225 University Avenue NE. It is much smaller and older
than our high-volume stores operated under the Top Valu brand. Heights Liquor is run profitably as a small neighborhood
convenience operation.
Our City's three-store municipal liquor operation is the 5th largest in Minnesota,and growing.It has provided funds for
City infrastructure,equipment,and mitigation of the negative effects of alcohol in the community through activities such
as D.A.R.E.
Objectives
The main objective for Heights Liquor for 2014 will be to maintain stable growth by continuing its neighborhood
convenience store model. This will be achieved primarily by tailoring the limited number of products that can be stocked
in this small facility specifically to the store's customer base. The discount purchasing opportunities created by the high
volumes at the other two stores are utilized by this store,when applicable.
This objective of a convenient,safe,efficient,small store will also be achieved through the completion of the 2013-2014
exterior improvements described under department 609-49794 Liquor Non-Operating.
Budget Comments
Cost of goods sold expense for Heights Liquor is budgeted each year to reflect the most recent sales projections available.
The primary change in budgeted expenses to operate the store for 2014,compared to 2013,is a$14,800 increase in
personnel costs.

Activity Description
To improve the analysis of results at each of the three stores, activity that is not a function of store operations is accounted
for separately in the non-operating department 49794. These nonoperating activities routinely include acquisition of
equipment over$5,000; construction of building or parking lot improvement; debt service; and transfers to other City
funds.
Objectives
Objectives for this department for 2014 are to:
Restore Liquor funding to Infrastructure Fund 430 to annual level existing prior to store relocations.
Restore Liquor funding to D.A.R.E.and related police programs to annual level existing prior to store relocations.
Complete any remaining portions of previously-authorized project to renovate store 3. $200,000 was appropriated for this
project.
The portions of the store 3 renovation completed in 2012 were:
The mill and overlay of parking lot asphalt.
Replacement of the concrete curbing and sidewalk.
Engineering study of options to stabilize east wall.
The portions of the store 3 renovation remaining for 2013 and 2014 are:
Install recommended bracing to east wall.
Engage architect to prepare bid specs for exterior facade improvements
Award contract to construct exterior facade improvements
Construct exterior facade improvements
Budget Comments
The 2014 budgeted expenses for the Liquor Non-Operating department increased $26,000 from the 2013 budget.
This reflects a$67,000 increase in the annual amounts transferred from the Liquor Fund to support other City activities,
offset by the following reductions:
$18,000 reduction in capital outlay-to zero in 2014.
$17,000 reduction in labor contract contingency-to zero in 2014.
$6,000 reduction in annual debt service.

Activity Description
This is the general budget for day-to-day operations in the Police Department, including personnel costs,general supply
costs,and other services and charges.
The Police Department provides public safety and crime prevention services to the citizens of Columbia Heights and
Hilltop. This includes police patrol, investigations,the Street Crimes unit,a Drug Task Force officer,School Liaison
Officers(Dist.#13),traffic enforcement, code enforcement, and administration.
New this year is that funds for the Animal Control operation(formerly 101-42700)and Police Community Programs
(formerly 101-42160) are now included in this budget to simplify budgeting processes and comply with financial
accounting standards.
Objectives
The Police Department's Mission Statement is:
The Columbia Heights Police Department is committed to active partnerships with the community in order to protect life
and property, innovatively solve problems, and enhance the safety and qualify of life in the communities we serve.
Each year,the Police Department participates in planning to develop a Strategic Plan for the coming year. The strategies,
objectives and action plan outlined in that plan form the framework for the department's activities in the areas of Problem
Oriented Policing,Community Oriented Policing/Partnerships and Communication,Accountability, and Training. Further,
budgetary planning and spending decisions are based on this plan, particularly in terms of resource allocations,spending for
community-related programs, and training.
Budget Comments
Personnel: Personnel costs for non-union and AFSCME employees were calculated based on actual amounts. Wages for
employees in LELS(Officers and Sergeants) and PMA were calculated by taking 2012 wage amounts, plus 2%for 2013,
plus an additional 2%for 2014. Adjustments were also made for those employees who are advancing through wage step
increases, and for increases in longevity. In addition,as a result of the omnibus tax bill just signed into law,the PERA rate
for police and fire is now higher, resulting in a$21,181 increase over amount which had originally been calculated. This
$21,181 is included in line item 1210, and appears as a separate mention on the Explanation of Personnel on the
Summary of Cost Factors. It should also be noted that the Police Department will no longer be receiving funding from NE
Metro Intermediate School District 916 for a Liaison Officer at the Alt School. This change is occurring because the Alt
School is moving from the Northeast State Bank building at 3989 Central Avenue and will no longer be located in
Columbia Heights. The Alt School Liaison position had been the department's 28th officer,therefore this position has
been removed from the 2014 proposed budget,and the department has been returned to its previously authorized
strength of 27 sworn officers.

BUDGET 2014
Police
Budget Comments Continued
The Supplies and Other Services and Charges sections of the 2014 budget were calculated based on 2013 amounts plus 2%,
plus the addition of expenditures previously covered in the Animal Control and Community Programs budgets. (see Animal
Control and Community Programs, below.)
Supplies: This section increased by two percent, plus$13,565 which is the amount carried over from corresponding line
items in the Animal Control and Community Programs budgets. Also added is$10,650 for the purchase of computers which
will be needed due to the required upgrade to Windows 7. Line item 2173, Protective Clothing, is budgeted at$6,000 for
2014,which is$3,500 less than the 2013 budgeted amount since fewer vests are due for replacement this year. Line item
2280,Vehicle Repair and Parts,was increased from$14,000 to$16,470 to bring it closer to the amounts which were
actually incurred in 2012 and 2013. Line item 2171, General Supplies,was increased by 2%, plus an additional$1,500 as
the rugs and towels provided through G&K are now to be coded to this line item instead of 4100, Rents and Leases.
Other Services and Charges: This section increased by two percent, plus$10,848 which is being carried over from the
Animal Control and Community Programs budgets. The amounts from those budgets have been added to the
corresponding line items here. Other changes include an increase to 3120, Educational Reimbursement,from the 2013
amount of$5,000 to$6,500. This amount is offset by the$1,500 of rugs/towels which is now budgeted in General Supplies
in the Supplies section (see above). Several department members are currently enrolled in programs to obtain their four-
year or Master's Degree,and this will allow for a greater ability to reimburse those employees for their tuition within the
scope of the city's policy. Line items 4020, Building Maintenance,and 4050,Garage, Labor Burd.,were budgeted at 2013
levels despite much higher 2012 actual expenditures in those areas. The constraints of the 2%limited increase do not allow
for these categories to be budgeted at levels which will realistically cover expenses.
Animal Control: Through 2013, costs for Animal Control were tracked separately through 101-42700. The 2013 budget
amount was $16,230 which included the estimated costs for the animal control contract,which at that time was with
Camden Pet. It also included a small amount,$300,for supplies. In the Fall of 2012, Camden Pet contacted the Police
Department requesting an early termination to their contract,which was set to expire in June 2013. After checking with
several local veterinary clinics in an attempt to find a new animal control contractor,an agreement was reached with
Brighton Vet Clinic(in New Brighton on Mississippi Street near Silver Lake Road). Advantages to our new agreement with
Brighton Vet include 24-hour drop off of animals and a fixed monthly cost regardless of the number of animals they are
housing. Per this agreement, our 2014 rate for animal control services is$8,400,which is included under line item 3050.
The 2013 adopted budget amount of$300 for animal control-related supplies was carried over to line item 2171. The
$8,700 total amount dedicated to animal control in the 2014 budget is almost$3,200 less than the 2012 actual expenditure
for this activity, which is directly related to the lower contract costs.
Community Programs: The 2013 Community Programs budget(101-42160) was$20,400 and included expenditures for
items such as the DARE(Drug Abuse Resistance Education)program;training, uniforms and equipment for the Police
Reserve unit;community-based initiatives like Neighborhood Watch and National Night Out;and crime prevention and
community outreach such as Cops-N-Kids and other youth outreach and accountability programs. Starting in 2014,as with
the Animal Control budget,these items will no longer be tracked in a separate fund but will be included in the Police
Department's regular budget.
For ease of review,the expenditures formerly tracked in the Animal Control budget will be listed on the Summary of Cost
Factors with an asterisk. The expenditures formerly tracked in the Community Programs budget are listed with a double
asterisk.

Activity Description
The Capital Equipment budget for 2014 includes two marked vehicles for patrol use and one unmarked vehicle, as well as
various equipment for those vehicles and related set-up costs.
Objectives
The Police Department's objectives as they relate to Capital Equipment are to obtain and maintain vehicles and capital
equipment in a way that meets the needs and requirements of the department,while utilizing best practices to obtain the
highest value and affordability.
Budget Comments
The police department is budgeting for the purchase of two of the Ford Utility vehicles this year.The Utility vehicle has
fuel efficiency nearly identical to the Sedan (16 MPG in city v. 17 MPG).The advantages presented by the Utility include
the added space for occupants and gear and it offers increased maneuverability in poor weather conditions. The added
room would be used to better store and carry police equipment and supplies to include entry tools,first aid equipment
and tactical gear. In addition,the increased size of the passenger compartment in the Utility vehicle offers better room
and comfort for our larger and taller officers.
In addition,the police department is budgeting to replace one unmarked vehicle in 2014.The vehicle scheduled for
replacement is a 2002 Ford Taurus with over 80,000 miles on it.The age and mileage make this an unsafe vehicle for use in
police emergency driving.The police department is proposing this 12-year-old vehicle be replaced with a 2014 Chevy
Impala V6 LS(or similar)vehicle purchased from the 2014 State Vehicle Contract.This vehicle will provide a safer ride and
will be more fuel efficient than the vehicle it is replacing.
The Police Department is budgeting to purchase the following vehicles:
2-2014 Ford Police Interceptor Utility vehicles @$27,300.00 e. $54,600.00
1—Chevrolet Impala 4 Dr LS Sedan est. @ $22,830.00
Total: $77,430.00
The Police Department is also budgeting to expend up to$35,730.00 for outfitting and setting up these vehicles for patrol
use.This amount includes the standard set-up as has been done in the past, plus the purchase of necessary equipment for
the squads including laptop computers.This number is in line with the 2013 expenditure and reflects the need to purchase
replacement equipment that is unable to be reused do to Ford discontinuing the Crown Victoria.The police department
has completed the speed radar update and this item has been removed from the budget for 2014.We have had our
current squad equipment reviewed to determine if it can be reused.Our current light bars have been identified as being in
need of replacement.These light bars have had regular mechanical trouble and the suppliers no longer provide support or
parts for these light bars.We have budgeted to continue the replacement of light bars as needed.
The total budgeted for squad cars and set-up in 2014 is$114,160.00.This is an increase from the 2013 number due to the
need to replace an aging unmarked vehicle during 2014.

Dear Ton Leonhardt:
In.2012, Minnesota's 357 public libraries offered residents thousands of opportunities to build knowledge and
skills.to 1mprove,enfiven and enhan.ce.their lives. Libraries bolstered the early literacy skills of nearly one
million (950,692)young children through story times and other literacy rich programs. Homework support and
technology programs.in safe and inviting spaces supported academic achievement for thousands of teens.
Libraries contributed to the.workforce, offering adults of all ages a place to write.resumes, apply for jobs,
practice English language skills and more. Collectively, these activities served to.strengthen communities.
across the state.The significant impact that each of Minnesota's public libraries made on its community was
made possible by the financial support that your city or county provided.
I� I am writing today to thank you for your commitment to your local public library and to alert you to your
1 community's state-certified level of library support for 2014. Minnesota Statutes 134.34 and 275.761 establish
the amount at 90%of the state-certified.level of support set in 2011.The enclosed state-certification form
provides documentation of the dollar amount for your records.
The Minnesota Department of Education, through.its division of State Library Services, provides funding for
public library services through Minnesota's 12 regional public.library systems:Regional_library basic system .
support, regional library telecom aid and the Arts and Cultural Heritage programs are all.formula-driven
funding opportunities that provide critical resources and ensure equitable, cost effective library services.
Funds are distributed to_the regional library systerns based on factors that include popula#ion and geographic
area served. If a county or city does.not meet its state-certified.level of.library support,Minnesota Statutes
134.34 Subd 4 require that we remove the county or city from our funding formulas,which reduces the annual.
allocation to the regional public-library system, This, inturm; may have.a severe impact on the regional
system's ability to provide services in that.city or county,and ultimately impact services to,residents:This is a
situation we work diligently to.avoid.
By establishing.new processes for tracking compliance with the state-certified level of library support.and
alternative mechanisms for communicating with cities, counties and regional public librarysystems,we strive
to ensure the timely.resolution of concerns. I welcome your feedback on how the process can be improved
and am happy to answer any questions you might have. Together,we can ensure that all Minnesota residents.
can benefit.from quality library.services.
Sincerely,
Jennifer R. Nelson

Per Capita for Columbia Heights Public Library
Under local contracts, the Columbia Heights Public Library must also meet a per capita
requirement for operating expenditures equal to/or greater than that set by the Anoka
County Library for the preceding year. Anoka County Library's projected per capita for
2013 is $24.17 (levy-only local support). Based on the requested levy for 2014,
Columbia Heights Public Library's total per capita would be $39.90.
For 2014, the per capita equals $3.33 month.
"Notes about the 2014 figures: $784,770 divided by 19,667 (2012 estimated population
of Columbia Heights from U.S. Census Bureau Annual Estimates of Resident Population)
equals $39.90 per capita for Columbia Heights. This is an increase of$0.05 per capita
from 2013.

Activity Description
This activity classification encompasses recreational programs provided to youth. These programs consist of children
and adolescents K-12. Programs fall under several sport-specific headings, including baseball,softball, basketball,
football,soccer,volleyball,and wrestling. All programs are participation-oriented,with the focus on fun,socialization,
and athletic skill development. These particular programs provide the youth of Columbia Heights with supervised play
opportunities at local gym facilities and neighborhood parks. This category also provides one-forth of the Recreation
Coordinator salary,gym supervisors and officials. Youth Athletics also provides office space to the J.P.M. budget.
Objectives
1.Develop coaches'clinics to better train youth coaches.
2. Develop youth teams at all grade levels at all parks.
3. Expand soccer leagues to include more age divisions.
4.Conduct an informational meeting for parents before the start of each season.
Budget Comments
The 2014 Youth Athletics budget has increased$4,061. 25%of the Recreation Coordinator salary is included within this
budget. Officials fees were increased by$2,000. One reason this budget has not had major increases is due to the
significant donation of athletic equipment made by the Columbia Heights Athletic Boosters Association. The Youth
Athletic budget also provides$2,980 for space allocation to J.P.M.

Activity Description
The Fire Department provides medical care,fire suppression, public education,and inspection services for the citizens of
Columbia Heights. The Fire Department also supplies the City of Hilltop with fire and medical service through a contract
agreement. The Fire Department will continue to work with neighboring communities to share resources through auto aid
and mutual aid agreements along with sharing of personnel for County and regional teams. Emergency Management
works side by side with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Minnesota Department of Homeland Security and
Emergency Management, and the Anoka County Emergency Manager to provide emergency management for the
protection of public safety, health, and welfare in our City during emergencies and natural disasters.
Objectives
Continue our pro-active approach in fire and EMS services.
Continue our involvement in County and regional teams and sharing of resources with neighboring communities.
Continue our involvement in the emergency management organizations and training to keep current with government
requirements and programs.
Budget Comments
Fire Department will be able to maintain services and current staffing levels within the 2%budget increase proposed for
2014. The State passed legislation to increase the employer contribution to PERA. This mandated increase is listed
separately in the Summary of Cost Factors pages.
Budgets of utilities for the Public Safety Building continues to change as we are getting a better history of usage. Electrical
costs should continue to decrease due to recommissioning work and Xcel rebate program.
Annual maintenance costs of the building continue to rise as warranties have expired and annual maintenance is needed.
Changes in supplies and services amounts are due to rising costs and the updating of expenditures charged to more
appropriate line items.

Activity Description
Property Inspections incorporates all rental property licensing and inspections, long grass/weed inspections, nuisance
inspections and property maintenance inspections under one budget.
Objectives
Provide timely and efficient inspection services in order to maintain property values.
Continue partnering with other City departments to provide coordinated inspection services.
Continue to evaluate staffing needs and upgrade software and computer equipment to operate an efficient program.
Continue with summer inspection help during busier summer inspection months.
Budget Comments
The number of licensing inspections continues to grow and the need for property maintenance inspections continues to
increase. Changes implemented in 2012 has provided more efficiency but property inspections are at a level where they are
taking valuable time away from core Fire Department time and functions. Summer months still are the busiest months and
budget proposes to keep additional summer help.

Activity Description
Contracted costs and billings for refuse, recycling and yard waste collection and disposal are separated and accounted for in this
department to enable tracking of actual costs for each area,and to facilitate accurate reporting to state and county agencies as
required. The City negotiated a new five year contract with Veolia ES Solid Waste Midwest through December 2014. Under this
contract,the hauler provides all households and multi-dwelling properties with garbage carts,dumpsters, and single sort
recycling has been introduced. Residents may request a change of service level by calling city staff.
Objectives
1. Promote responsible waste practices,through training and education,to reduce municipal solid waste
tonnages.
2. Provide cost-effective options for disposal of problem items.
3. Publicize the disposal options available for residents.
4.The refuse/recycling contract ends in December 2014 with the current provider,Advanced Disposal (formerly Veolia).
Review a three-year extension proposal from Advanced as allowed in the current contract and make
recommendations to extend with them or conduct a new RFP.
Budget Comments
The Refuse Disposal Budget is$1,594,528, a 3.5%increase from 2013. This increase reflects a contractual 3.5%increase over
2013 with Advanced Disposal (formerly Veolia ES Solid Waste Midwest)and to reflect a 7.4%increase of tipping fees at the
Anoka County RRT owned by GRE(Great River Energy).
The Refuse line item#2910 accounts for both Contractor service costs and tipping fees for disposal of solid waste. Typically 40%
of the total is tipping fees and 60%is contractor charges.

Activity Description
The Capital Equipment fund was established to fund long-term capital equipment needs in the General fund. This was
accomplished by preparing a detailed 20-year projection of the City's equipment needs and scheduling of long term
replacement. Thus,the City can set aside an equal amount of funding to provide a reserve for future years when larger,
more costly equipment will need to be purchased. This, in turn, eliminates the highs and lows of budgeting as an equal
dollar amount is set aside each year.
